pets are at our mercy

pets are at our mercy
whether they become parents
it is not their decision
we had our male dog fixed today
we have had a lot of dogs fixed
maybe it is because of my age
but I felt guilty about this one
taking his choices away
I do not remember feeling this way before
He is a gorgeous dog,
but he has been humping everything
and he has wandered pretty far from home
there is no telling how far he would walk for the right female
I cannot lose him
I love him
he is my baby
